Bring your own broken pottery to mend with modern kintsugi techniques over this 2 day workshop

Alberta Craft Gallery & Shop - Calgary

Modern Kintsugi Workshop In Japan, we have a long history of pottery mending called "Kintsugi" using natural resin (urushi) and real gold. However, traditional kintsugi requires a long time, handling natural urushi, and high cost of buying fine gold powder. In this workshop, you'll give new life to broken ceramics by using modern urushi (plant based glue with solvent) and brass or silver powder to finish. Bring your own broken ceramics! (Non-food contact items are preferred) Don't have any sad pieces? No problem. We’ll have some beautiful broken pottery from local artists for you to purchase ($5-$15)Kazuki Nomura is a textile designer and the owner of Calgary based organic Japanese tea brand, ISSA GREEN. She has been doing traditional kintsugi for fun and would like to share the philosophy and technique in the local community. First day of workshop -- preparation and gluingSecond day -- finishing Jan 24th and 31st | 2-4pm age 12+
